Hold the trunk lid open and control its motion with the Stabilus Trunk Lid Lift Support 4B-8908CO, a gas-charged Lift-O-Mat unit built on the OE design to match the original part's fit, form, and function on the 1994-1997 Volvo 850 (all engines). A support that drifts closed, feels weak, or lets the lid drop on its own is a sign this part may need replacing.
It installs without special tools, and mounting hardware is not included. The listed application uses two supports; for best results replace them in pairs so both sides move evenly. Country of origin: Germany.
Manufacturer part number 4B-8908CO (also 4B8908CO).
